Recreate Olivia Palermo's sleek braid
The perfect style for humid summer nights
The one hairstyle every woman needs to master for humid summer nights
We love a beachy braid for the day, but a polished plait looks sharp and minimises the chance of frizz on humid summer nights.
“Braids are great for keeping hair neat,” agrees Mark Hampton, Toni & Guy global hair ambassador, adding that the style can look either “preppy and considered, or sporty”.
Here’s three easy steps to get the look.
1
Smooth hair
2
Part your hair
3
Plait at the nape of your neck
4
Spray to finish
The kit:
ELEVEN Australia Give Me Hold Flexible Hair Spray
